=== Usage ===
This template provides an easy way to link a redirect page without following the redirect.
<pre>{{no redirect|page name|label}}</pre>
It accepts two unnamed parameters:
* 1= (required) the name of the page to link.
* 2= (optional) the text to be displayed. If this is omitted then the input of the first parameter is used.
==== Example ====
Instead of having to copy/paste or type:
* <code><nowiki>[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Silence_of_the_Sea&redirect=no ''The Silence of the Sea'']</nowiki></code>
** to yield [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Silence_of_the_Sea&redirect=no ''The Silence of the Sea'']
an editor can type:
* <code><nowiki>''{{No redirect|The Silence of the Sea}}''</nowiki></code>
or an '''<span class="plainlinks">[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:No_redirect&hidelinks=1&hidetrans=1 alias]</span>''' can be used, as in:
* <code><nowiki>''{{-r|The Silence of the Sea}}''</nowiki></code>
Both of those will take users ''directly'' to the same redirect page and display its pagename as a bluelink thus (using the alias): ''{{-r|The Silence of the Sea}}''.
The second parameter (label) may be useful in discussions on talk pages. For example,
* <code><nowiki>{{-r|The Silence of the Sea|this redirect}}</nowiki></code>
may appear on a talk page in this context: "For reference, see {{-r|The Silence of the Sea|this redirect}}."
If there is no page with that name given by the first parameter, the template generates a redlink as for any article name:
* <code><nowiki>{{-r|Bill Clinton (nickname)}}</nowiki></code> displays as {{-r|Bill Clinton (nickname)}}
Also, if a page is not a redirect, a normal link is displayed:
* <code><nowiki>{{-r|Bill Clinton}}</nowiki></code> displays as {{-r|Bill Clinton}}

This is a documentation subpage for Template:No redirect. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template is used on 311,000+ pages, or roughly 5753% of all pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
Usage
This template provides an easy way to link a redirect page without following the redirect.
{{no redirect|page name|label}}
It accepts two unnamed parameters:
- 1= (required) the name of the page to link.
- 2= (optional) the text to be displayed. If this is omitted then the input of the first parameter is used.
Example
Instead of having to copy/paste or type:
[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Silence_of_the_Sea&redirect=no ''The Silence of the Sea'']
- to yield The Silence of the Sea
an editor can type:
''{{No redirect|The Silence of the Sea}}''
or an alias can be used, as in:
''{{-r|The Silence of the Sea}}''
Both of those will take users directly to the same redirect page and display its pagename as a bluelink thus (using the alias): Template:-r.
The second parameter (label) may be useful in discussions on talk pages. For example,
{{-r|The Silence of the Sea|this redirect}}
may appear on a talk page in this context: "For reference, see Template:-r."
If there is no page with that name given by the first parameter, the template generates a redlink as for any article name:
{{-r|Bill Clinton (nickname)}}
displays as Template:-r
Also, if a page is not a redirect, a normal link is displayed:
{{-r|Bill Clinton}}
displays as Template:-r
